my whole town is going to be underwater. It's a mandatory evacuation. Something about opening the flood spill gates or something I really don't know the details

i try to be a take it as it comes kinda guy, so i'm not too about it

but this means that my job is going to be shut down, maybe for several months : deytukurjubs:

and I need to find homes for the outside animals. At first I was just worried about the gators coming up into the yard but now from what it seems there's not going to be a yard. They're telling us to put all important paperwork n stuff as high up as possible because our homes will probably be flooded

I'm trying to blow it all off as much as possible, but recent developments make it seem pretty

I don't think they can legally force you from your home. I heard about this on NPR and some official was saying something about its not a law that people need to evacuate, but they're strongly suggesting it. they're probably calling it mandatory to people know how serious the flooding will be. i could be wrong, but you could stay home and hang out underwater for a while if you really wanted to exercise your rights

but all kidding aside, that fucking sucks. i can't imagine how shitty it must be to have to pack up as many valuables and essentials as you can and wait for your home and your possessions to be destroyed by a flood. i feel for ya man.. sorry. nature is a bitch.

Dude that sucks. Living in a flood plane you have to expect this sort of thing to happen every now and again. Good luck man.

well a few days ago it was "voluntary evacuation", and we had 2-3 weeks (from now) to be prepared

now word of mouth is "mandatory evacuation" in just about 1 week, supposedly with the national guard here n thangs

I just went outside, looks like the water would have to come up about 15 feet to reach my floor.and I think my house is higher up than a lot of em around here

"they say" that if your house flooded in the flood of 78 or some shit, it will again plus some

the roads will definitely be underwater (extremely dangerous around here)i'll definitely be out of work for an undetermined period of time (the biggest thing that sucks about this because I'm broke lol)and I definitely have to relocate several animals so that they don't become gator bait

I don't live in a flood plain. I live in the swamp. They're saying the waters gonna be the highest its been in the last 100 years or something.

Man, lol I don't know anything but hearsay for now but overall it definitely seems like some unfortunately serious

swamp = flood plain that never dries out right? Still sucks though.
